The Meeting In Faneu1l HalI-PoIice
Out In Large Numbers to Preserve
the Peace.
BOSTON, June 21.-No meeting ever held
in Boston has created such intense excitement
as the meeting of English and Scottish socie-
ties in Faneuil Hall tonight to celebrate
with banquet the Queens jubilee. Ever
since the board of aldermen granted the use
OF the hall for this purpose strong senti-
ment in opposition thereto hes been exoress-
ed, which hes grown in intensity until with
IN TIE, past two or three days it has seemed
as though in might develop into liotous pro-
ceedings should the banquet take place.
Every effort on the part of the remonstrants
to induce the aldermen to rescind their vote
failed and the banquet took place Tonight
under conditions that never before attended
a Boston gathering. Before Z O'Clock groups
of men and boys began to gather around the
hall and their numbers were rapidly augment
ed until the square was nearly filed with
humanity. In very few moments a detail
of police arrived, then another and still
another with Deputy Superintendent Burrill
in command, until over one hundred officers
were on the ground and orders
were given to keep the side
walks and the space in front
Of the entrance clear. Carriages soon began
10 arrive and as their occupants alighted
each gentleman was obliged to show his |
ticket to the blue-coated sentries before he |
could gain admission to the hall Aside /
.fom one or Two arrests for drunkenness
here had been no disturbance whatever. By
o'clock, the hour for holding the banquet, |
Dock Square and the approach to Faneuil |
Hall therefrom had become dense1y packed |
with people and other streets leading into
7aneuil Hall Square also contained large
crowds. Then orders were given to dive
This was done by the police, whose number
lad been increased by the l-ival of squad
# mounted officers, but not until
ONE vigorous clubbing had been
lone. In the rush at the
Jock Square approach an officers horse
tumbled and knocked down young lad,
Who is reported to have died Tom his inju-
les. The ropes were stretched at lest and
10 one was allowed to enter FaneuiI Hall |
'quare unless provided with a ticket or was |
nown to the police. The crowd seemed
westruck at the elaborate provisions made |
or preserving the peace and appeared to
ave moderated the power of the city au-
arangued the crowd in Dock Square and |
omeone suggested that the hall be bu1 ned, |
tut the sentiment did not meet With much |
avor. Aside from the shouting and con-
asion incident to every large crowd
hoodlums there was no disturbance. |
AS late arrivals at the banquet were oblig-
to force their way in cal.iage through the
ense throng escorted by police, they were
Used, but no violence was attempted. The
anquet' is still in progress and it is feared
nat some trouble may be made when the
uests depart, but it is believed that the
olice can check any such demonstration.
olice Commissioner Whiting is personally
1pervising the police al engagements.
AS the night progressed more police rein
arrived until more than four
undred were scattered around the hall and |
ajacent streets: Fortunately their services
ere not needed and after 10 O'Clock the
rowds began to sfadually dispense until by
l:30 o'clock scarcely two hundred persons
esides the police could be seen in the
luares. the banquet continued until 12 | I
clock and when it was concluded the guests +
uietly left for their homes with no signs of
reference from any non-sympathizer.
